Abstract:The three-dimensional flows in an inward-turning inlet were numerically investigated at different incoming flow conditions. When the incoming flow conditions change, the shock angle and the shock interaction form of the external compression wave change, and the development of the near-wall low-energy fluid and the streamwise vortex is also affected. The impingement of the shock wave leads to a sharp increase in the vorticity of the low kinetic energy fluid. Under the pressure gradient caused by the shock wave,… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
